Several studies for the painting Szopen [Chopin].

The composer is accompanied by a woman. Their relationship is hard to define, and her facial features are of no help in identifying the person. Weiss reaches into the realm of the imagination, suggests the existence of a parallel between the passion of feeling expressed in music and a passion for his woman.
